Are you using a USB connection? If so then I fear you'd hafta do much more than ifup eth0.

This is one of those modems with both a USB and Network interface right? When I used the modem it was detected automatically I didnt have to do Ifup anything. Can you ping the modem and it does work in Windows right?
